9 Month Progress...

Well, our babies are already 9 months old!! It is so hard to believe!! It's funny to think about how fast time goes by as you age, but it's put in fast forward once you have children!! Here are our latest stats...

Mitchell:
weight=20.4 lbs.=46.42%tile
length=28 in.=42.37%tile
head circumference=18.31 in.=82.91%tile (he's got a HUGE head~ha ha!!)

Parker:
weight=18.19 lbs.=14.64%tile
length=27.25 in.=18%tile
head circumference=17.72 in.=41.73%tile

They both stopped eating baby food on their 9 month birthday. They LOVE "real" food!! Their favorite food group is the meat group!! They are definitely their daddy's little boys!! Boar's Head maple honey turkey is, by far, their favorite thing to eat!! They have mastered the "sippy cup"...well, they won't really hold it, but they have figured out how to get the water out of it. They do NOT like peas...at all!! Every time I put it in their mouths, they both gag and puke...it's lovely!!

They are finally both sitting up...Mitchell started sitting at 7 months and Parker finally figured it out at 8 months. We are hoping that with them not being flat on their backs as much, maybe they will grow some hair on the back of their heads~ha!!

Mitchell is VERY close to crawling...he has been rocking on his knees for almost 3 weeks!! I know I am probably going to eat my words on this, but I can't wait for him to crawl...he gets so frustrated when he can't get to something he wants!! Although, my life is going to be turned upside down once they become mobile!!

Parker is not the slightest bit interested in crawling!! In fact, he knows how to roll over and he just NEVER does!! He is totally content sitting up or laying on his back.

Their sleeping positions are too cute!! Parker literally lays on back facing straight up with his arms straight out like he's flying. Mitchell, on the other hand, immediately rolls over to his tummy the second we lay him down and tucks his knees under him with his little booty sticking straight up in the air...precious!!

Parker talks more than Mitchell. He loves the "baa baa" sound. Mitchell is just always smiling and giggling. In fact, lately in the car he has been making different laughing noises as if he's trying them all out to see which one he wants to have...ha!!

No TEETH!! I feel like they have been teething for months, but we have no teeth to show for all the crankiness, runny noses, drooling, and gnawing on everything in sight!! We hope to see some pearly whites soon!! I dreamed the other night that Parker got those top fang teeth in and never got any other ones...I'll be glad when they all come in and we can look back on this and laugh!!
